This is not the same as the - ctime - status change time - that Unix keeps, so Samba by default - reports the earliest of the various times Unix does keep. Setting - this parameter for a share causes Samba to always report midnight - 1-1-1980 as the create time for directories.</para> - - <para>This option is mainly used as a compatibility option for - Visual C++ when used against Samba shares. Visual C++ generated - makefiles have the object directory as a dependency for each object - file, and a make rule to create the directory. Also, when NMAKE - compares timestamps it uses the creation time when examining a - directory. Thus the object directory will be created if it does not - exist, but once it does exist it will always have an earlier - timestamp than the object files it contains.</para> - - <para>However, Unix time semantics mean that the create time - reported by Samba will be updated whenever a file is created or - or deleted in the directory. NMAKE finds all object files in - the object directory. The timestamp of the last one built is then - compared to the timestamp of the object directory. If the - directory's timestamp if newer, then all object files - will be rebuilt.
